Except, she didn’t do that. Here are her remarks. She said, at one point, “And I also want to thank your father, Vice President Dick Cheney, for his support and — (applause) — and what he has done to serve our country.”
She didn’t say he was awesome. Or good. Or that she was glad he was alive. She thanks him for his support, as an aside within 1800 words at an event which didn’t have all that much to do with him. Why are you playing up this twisty narrative that that meant she “gushed about how awesome” he was?
However I was planning to vote for Harris so yeah now I’m fucking upset.
“Was” planning?
This is the deal-breaker? She said one nice thing about a bad person, and all of a sudden it doesn’t matter what Trump wants to do with the United States, or what might happen if he wins?
That is why I’m making a specific point about this. You are freaking out in a very calculated way, distorting one sentence at a campaign event into “I wish they didn’t like to dance in the viscera of their millions of innocent victims” and “Being super friendly with war criminals” and things like that.
If you want to find reasons to not vote for Kamala Harris, be honest about why. Don’t pick out individual freakout events that can be spun into something they’re not, and dutifully freak out about them as if they mattered.
Even better, work for change. If you want to support someone that’ll be better than Kamala Harris, no one is stopping you. But freaking out in a particular dishonest way about one thing she said at a campaign rally, and turning it into something very different from it was so you can say you “was” planning to vote for her, sounds a lot like propaganda to me.
I said “was” because the election hasn’t happened yet genius. I also said I have to vote for her because the other option is a fascist. Unlike you that is prohibitive for me.
Isn’t this just perfect though? Isn’t this just so representative? The neoliberal mindset in a nutshell. The outrage at my lack of blind loyalty. The utter irrational panic that I don’t fall in line immediately. You are either a slave to the neoliberal capitalistic system or you are an enemy. That’s the mindset that has allowed them to commit atrocity after atrocity for the last century. That’s the mindset that allows Harris and auk here to describe dropping bombs on tens of thousands of innocents as “service” instead of crimes. It’s fucking disgusting. Talk about propaganda.
Who from “the Cheneys” other than Liz Cheney came to this event
I’m not outraged at your lack of blind loyalty. You can loyalty, or not, to anyone you want. I’m outraged at your twisting of the truth for malicious ends.
